Southern solutions are America's solution to the HIV epidemic and health disparities.
About us
The mission of Southern AIDS Coalition (SAC) is to end the HIV epidemic and other health disparities in the South. We are a non-partisan coalition of government, community, and business organizations and leaders working to prevent new HIV transmissions and build a healthier South for people living with HIV and those at high risk for HIV transmission. We do this through (1) public health advocacy; (2) capacity building assistance and education; (3) leadership development and resiliency building for PLWHIV; (4) research and evaluation; (5) addressing stigma; and (6) strategic grantmaking. We envision a South where every person has access to high-quality health care and essential support services (including safe, decent, affordable housing), free from stigma and discrimination. We also envision a South where every person understands their risk for HIV transmission, receives routine screening, and has immediate access to a full range of treatment options or prevention interventions and harm reduction services. We finally envision a South which leads the nation in health outcomes.
